Check periodically to make sure it has the proper tire pressure.

This place at 3415 Dixie hwy is a joke.. There filthy and disrespectful, Your receipt will look like a 2 year old wrote it out.. After they tried to sale me the wrong size tires,I ended up getting 2new ones that were not balance.When I ask if they would check the air in the outer 2 tires he act like a fool trying to figure out how to put the right amount of air in,, Then he only check 1 tire..I tell my friends and family not to go to any discount tire store.So for I,m glad I prevent 3 friends from going there..And as i,m telling you,, Drive pass them there are plenty of tire stores.Why take a chance.

There was broken glass all over the parking lot,The place was filthy, The service was the worst I ever had,,They didn't balance my new tires,Witch I had to wait on,When I ask if they would check the air in my two front tires they only check one as he act like a fool doing it,, My recipe look, s like a 2year old wrote it out..I told my family and friends never to go there,, If I can cause them to louse one customer then I help one person..

Staff is super nice and courteous every time I stop by. Have had several tires replace and some break work done and they always get me in and out in no time. There is a guy named Justin who always seems to make sure things are done right the first time. Double checks everything before I leave and is always there to help. Highly recommended

my experience with this place was a nightmare, I went to get spark plugs in "He" sent me to his cousin who not only put the panel on wrong also caused 275 dollars worth of damage. Empire has sold me used tires with no belt. Shame on me for going back there but I advise others to seek else where for work on your car.

I went to Discount Tires at Dixie and Farnsley Rd Friday after I got off work, I called the day before to be sure they had the tires I wanted. When I got there, this place used to be a gas station, I thought to myself what have I gotten in to. These guys are top notch, their service is great. You can be sure I will be back to get tires there again. Keep up the good work.

Do NOT go there!!! Horrible service and refused to refund my money! I had a popping noise in my truck they charged me $70 to look at it for 15 min and quoted me $1200 to replace front end steering parts! I took it to another shop who looked at it for free and told me my rear tire lug nuts were loose. After the other shop tightened them up my truck quite making the noise and is great! Just think if I had given Ken towery $1200 my problem still would not be fixed!!!!!!

I came here to get an oil change, & tire rotation & tires checked because I was going on a road trip. My tire was sliced & they circled it in white but didn't tell me. I noticed the white circle & brought it back. They put a new tire on for free. They made it right. It could've turned out very bad, but they cared & made right on their mistake!
